"The solution has good performance."
"It is definitely scalable. It can handle a lot more traffic and group work compared to any other products that I've evaluated. It could easily scale a lot more than what I'm doing right now."
"The most valuable features of the Cisco Cloud Services Router are the integration with Amazon and Oracle cloud."
"It integrates well with the other products we're using. We have it with multiple windows like Palo Alto, Arista and it easily integrated with them."
"It handles stress very well. We have not reached a point of needing to worry about its capabilities."
"The most valuable feature of the Cisco Cloud Services Router is it can make your migrations smooth. For example, if you want to migrate to the cloud, but you don't want to change the IP. You can extend your VLAN from on-premise to the cloud without having to change the IP."
"It seems pretty stable. We have never had any issues with it."
"This solution is scalable."
"What's best about Cisco Cloud Services Router is the support. It's excellent, and so far, no significant challenges. Another valuable feature of the product is easy integration with other products."
"Juniper MX Series Routers are easy to configure and easy to back up."
"It offers high protection and I like it."
"Juniper Enterprise Routers is very flexible."
"We are able to easily build chassis with Juniper MX Series Routers."
"I have found the most useful features to be layered VPNs, IPsec, VPLS, and firewall filters."
"I think that the extensions are very valuable. The way you can test the configuration before applying that configuration permanently is very helpful. The rollback configuration is also very useful."
"Juniper Enterprise Routers has a CLR and it's more reliable and faster than others."
"The solution's main features are its security and ease of use."
"There must be a more easy-to-use GUI."
"The ease of use within the AWS environment needs to improve. Sometimes, it is very esoteric in how you use it. Therefore, you have to learn to use it, then you are able to."
"The initial setup is easy for one device but is more complex when numerous devices need to be configured."
"I would like some deployment examples and guides specific to AWS VPCs and how to separate your subnets. Then, how they tie-in with the Internet gateway and any NAT services that we are running on our VPC. This would be extremely helpful."
"Technical support could be better. I am missing a single pane of glass, where I can see all the connections, etc."
"Cisco Cloud Services Router could improve by having more features. It is lacking features, such as virtualization and containerization. Additionally, there should be increased security and connectivity between routers."
"A CAPEX/OPEX model, where the pricing model is subscription-based, would give much better flexibility for the customers. The pricing and model for Cisco Cloud Services Router and other Cisco products could be improved."
"It does the job, but it's not cloud native. It could be even better, like having a single pane of glass and being less expensive."
"The configuration is difficult."
"The initial setup is not easy."
"The solution needs to offer SDN features."
"Better documentation to assist with implementation would be helpful."
"Finding market expertise is hard."
"The setup was a bit complex."
"In terms of what could be improved, they could extend the software warranty to be for its lifetime, as well. At the moment, the software warranty is limited, I think to one year."
"The price of this solution should be improved."
"Enhancing the capacity would be a welcome improvement."
